Experience Luang Prabang

Bite-sized trip

  • Itinerary:
    Luang Prabang
  • Duration:
    4 days / 3 nights (flexible)
  • Price:
    From £ 245.- per person (excluding flights)
Step into a heady, spiritual world of golden spires, saffron-robed monks, frangipani flowers and crumbling French mansions. Prepare to be instantly caught in the spell of Luang Prabang, a heartwarming place slung along the banks of the Mekong River, circled by jungle-topped mountains. You’ll spend four days getting lost in the magic of Luang Prabang, watching monks file into the temples at sunrise and floating down the Mekong at sunset. Sip on a delicious local coffee at a sidewalk cafe, wander through the ramshackle market, explore nearby caves and walk to hidden waterfalls.

Day 1 – Arrival in Luang Prabang

When you arrive in Luang Prabang, you’ll be transferred to your small-scale, charming guest house within walking distance of the city centre, run by friendly Laotians. The entire city has a welcoming and friendly vibe, so you’ll feel at home in an instant. You can spend the rest of the day exploring the city on foot, or whisk off around the sights on a bicycle.

Days 2-3 – Sunset on the Mekong and free time

Today you are free until 4pm when you’ll be picked up by tuk-tuk for a sunset trip along the Mekong River. You’ll sail upstream to the confluence of the Nam Khan and Mekong River, a sacred place for the local Laotians. On the other side of the river, you’ll take a walk to the hidden temple of Wat Long Khoune and Wat Chomphet. Finally, with glass of wine or beer in hand, you’ll watch the sun set over the legendary Mekong. The following day is free for you to spend as you wish.
